A few months ago I had my wheels off when changing my timing belt & breaks. Well, when I put my wheels back on I noticed a dead clunking noise coming from the front wheels when I let off the gas. My steering wheel would shake a bit too. I checked my axles. They looked good, and a sticker on them said "mfg. 8/00." So, I didn't think they could be bad. Well, that noise slowly went away. My drivers front tire had extreme wear on the outer wall after a while.

I recently had my tires changed and the noise is back plus my rotors are squeaking. I'm clueless. What do you guys think it could be?

Rotors?
Alignment?

I drive a 94 ex if that helps. Thanks for the help in advance.

 

anyone?

 

man im having the same exact problem..i also have a ingalls camber kit as well and my tires are just getting all chewed up and my wheel shakes when i accelerate but once i let off the pedal it seems to be alright..i didnt really get to check it because im not sure on what to check, everything seems to be fine but once i rotated my tire i dont think they balanced it right and after that day it started doing it..maybe it could be my tires,uncorrect camber kit,alignment? i donno please help i cant drive my car!

 

Yeah, I'm stumped too. Is the noise you're experiencing a "clunking" as the wheel rotates?

 

I just walked outside to do some more checking, and back drivers tire is flat now.

Damn the luck

Is the clunking a "thump"?

It could be the steel belts inside the tire. If they are damage, they will make noise. The hard part is you can't tell if the tires are damage from the outside.

yeah thats what it is exactly..i also think its the tires as well but for it to cause camber wear and etc..i think its my camber kit that needs to be adjusted and to get an alignment..hope you find out the problem, im going to a shop to get new tires,alignment and to correct my camber kit asap

 

Have you guys thought about the bearings? Repack them or get new ones.

 

I was not aware that honda needed to be repacked??

More info on this please...

 

when there is a thump.. your tire has a lump on it..could also cause vibration if tires are cupped ..and feathering.. the reason why it is wearing on the outside is because alignment..camber cound wear ur tire but the toe setting is worse.. ur tires are wearing on the outside, caused by toe in...get and alignment.. change, and rotare them often 3-5 thousand miles.cause if not it will start cupping..
